Gentle yoga is a slow, calming style of yoga designed to support relaxation, ease of movement, and nervous system regulation. It emphasizes soft stretches, mindful breathing, and simple poses that are held longer and approached with care. Movements are smooth and unhurried, allowing the body to release tension without strain. Classes often include seated or reclined postures, light standing poses, and the use of props such as blankets, bolsters, or blocks for comfort and support. Gentle yoga is accessible for beginners, people recovering from injury or illness, those with limited mobility, or anyone seeking a soothing, low-impact practice.  Adults 18 years and older and mature teens welcome! Bring a yoga mat and water (blankets, bolsters and blocks are optional). Instructor: Jackie O’Brien is a certified yoga teacher and holistic practitioner offering mindful, accessible yoga through community offerings and her business, Boho Healing. She has completed 200-hour yoga teacher training and is trained in Reiki and sound therapy, weaving gentle movement, energy work, and sound into calming, restorative experiences. A Mayfield Village resident and mother of two, Jackie is passionate about creating welcoming classes that support physical health, nervous system regulation, stress relief, and overall well-being for her local community. Registration Deadline: the Sunday before each session (if minimum enrollment met registration will stay open longer online). Held at the Civic Center.
